Sales Overview

The sales division is one of PSAMA's newer divisions, established in Fall of 2018. The sales division was created out of the executive board’s and alumni member’s recognition of the importance for students to understand sales and have knowledge surrounding the topic. We are excited to open our sales projects to all PSAMA members! 

PSAMA Professional Sales Academy

The sales academy is a five week long professional sales development project designed by our MD, AD, and Professor Jennifer Roth to foster, improve, and enrich personal selling skills. Many opportunities will be presented to network within the entire project, separate divisions, and beyond! The skills learned will carry through to several real world applications such as career fairs, networking events, and everyday business communications.

Product Innovation and Shelf Placement with Retail Division

The Product Innovation and Shelf Placement Project will display the capability to brainstorm a new product and find the best selling placement within a store. Each group will receive a budget to fund their proposed ideas, and justify why they made the that placement and how it would benefit sales. At the conclusion of the project, teams will give a presentation and a winner will be determined. This project will be in collaboration with the Retail Division to enhance all aspects of Marketing.

PSAMA Shark Tank

Shark Tank will allow students to use their creativity and pitching skills in front of professors from around the university! Members will get feedback and experience with pitching products and increasing the appeal of products from our very own corporate sponsors. Pitches throughout division meetings will lead up to the final presentation/pitch for the professors who are our “sharks”!
